Sausage Balls

The name of this recipe just makes me laugh. I think the creator should have thought of something a little less, well, let’s just say, awkward.

I am a word person. I have words I like (dollop, squish, frolic) and definitely words I don’t like (moist, firm, penetrate). Sausage and balls are not my favorites either.

In order to change the name of this recipe to a more acceptable, not as cringe-worthy title; I would like to introduce you to the new, improved, lower-fat version of the original sausage ball recipe, called: Snausage Nuggets. Two words that I really like.

The word snausage brings back so many funny memories and is in honor of all of my college volleyball teammates. Nugget is just a great word, almost as good as snippet, that fits well with the vibe of the recipe.Much better in my opinion!

This is a great holiday party finger food, or served with a hot bowl of chili. By using reduced fat ingredients when possible, this is a much more svelte version of the original. Enjoy!
